I wouldn't be surprised if he has been let go because of the MacBook Pro keyboard debacle and possibly was also unhappy to have to design a tower.

If you watch the video you’ll learn the image was generated randomly first and then validated against the telescope data. Millions of images were generated. And the selected image is based on the theories of how a black hole should look rather than an actual photo of a black hole. As those theories improve or more telescopes are used or turned on for longer then a different random image could be selected.

120 Hz screen gone bye bye

They got away with calling their lesser LTE as 4G for years

i7 is for server rooms only, it will be way too noisy with air cooling given Intel still hasn't improved on nanometers for so many years now. i5's only benefit is the hyperthreading which is unnecessary on a quad core. The i3 has 4 real cores and gives comparable performance to Kabylake i5 but even better is it doesn't have turbo boost which means more predictable and reliable performance. i3 gets my vote, save the money for the upgrade to 256GB SSD (which is ridiclous it isn't the base spec at this price).

I think 4 thunderbolt ports was overkill. If it has 2 controllers then they could have cut costs by only including 1 and got the price down to $599 ($699 if they had included 256GB SSD). Could even put a display port in the space to save people needing to buy a USB-C to display port cable. I can't see anyone running multiple 4k@60Hz monitors off this GPU. And no one in their right mind would use a thunderbolt 5k because at that additional cost the 27" iMac is within reach and offers so much more value than a mini.
